On Tuesday, November 19, award-winning musician and talented singer/songwriter, Gordon Mote will appearing on "The Rick & Bubba Show" at 8:00 am CST. He will be performing his current single, "Faith Like That," from his current new album, All Things New. Then, on January 6, 2014, Gordon will make his third appearance on the highly rated morning show Coffee, Country, and Cody on WSM-AM, filling in for Bill Cody, with the show's producer, Charlie Mattos.
"Faith Like That" is starting to gain noticeable support at radio. Rob West, the Program Director at WJVL in Janesville, Wisconsin, has compared it to a Randy Travis classic. In a press release, he said, "If you think back to when radio stepped out of the box and played 'Three Wooden Crosses,' 'Faith Like That' is one of those songs. Being a dad, the song has a powerful message without really pushing it. Christian music can work well with the Country format and this song fits!"
Mike Thomas, the Program Director at KWRE/KFAV in Warrenton, Ohio was pleasantly surprised by the response the first time he played the song. He shared, "Not knowing what to expect, I put Gordon's song up against two very good independents and two major label cuts in my weekly playoff, and all I can say is Wow! He smoked the competition and the requests haven't stopped since. We often hear about immediate reaction records...this is the definition of an immediate reaction record. One of my listeners summed it up best when she said this, and I quote...'this is what we need to hear more of on the radio with what's going on in the world.'"
Music Row Magazine critic, Bob Oermann, favored All Things New by naming it his "Disc of the Day." In his review, he said, "His singing of the thrilling, inspiring, pile-driving title song of his new album will lift your heart, pierce your soul and dazzle your spirit. What an anthem. Play it again."
Gordon Mote has 21 shows left in 2013 and he'll be closing out the year traveling all over the U.S., going to the Netherlands and Norway. Then he will end the year on a Carribean cruise.
